In "Troisième genèse," the original X-Men reunite when Jean Grey returns from the brink, revealing the lingering echoes of the Phoenix. With a new mission in mind, the team forms X-Factor—mutant hunters in name, rescuers in truth—beginning their journey with the arrival of Navy man Rusty Collins, whose sudden flame powers mark the start of something far greater. Written by Bob Layton and illustrated by Jackson Guice, with inks by Joe Rubinstein and coloring by Petra Scotese, Max Scheele, and Glynis Oliver, this 1987 issue features a striking cover by Walter Simonson and Joe Rubinstein.
